For me (and many people) Peter has become the iconic Halifax Wanderer. A fan favourite, always giving back to the fans and community, he's a great guy and we're honoured that he came back on the show to give us a recap on what he's been doing recently and what we can expect this coming season.
In this interview we catch up, find out what he's been doing in the offseason like spending some time on the West coast, we get into pre-season training, Peter’s connection with the fans, and his coaching experience with local club Halifax County.
We also cover some of his other projects and marketing company - Did you see Halifax Wanderers Beer "The Grounds" during the Island Games? - yup that was him behind the marketing campaign! You can check out more about Peter's involvement in the marketing campaign behind the limited edition Wanderer's been here.
One of my favourite parts of the conversation were what he looks for in terms of development from the kids he coaches, and the tips Peter gives young players specifically on heading, and when to check your shoulder as a defender. He gets into some very specific details like his own personal "triggers" and more. Really insightful!
There were a lot of great moments and Peter is always great to chat to.
We also touch on the inaugural season, being named to the Team of the Decade for the CBU Capers, and then we look ahead to the hopefully soon-to-be-announced season. We talk about what back to training has been like in the 5v5 intrasquad tournaments - football tennis competitions that are more competitive than the Wanderers games and what it’s like to be coached by Mesut Mert.
